Frequently Asked Questions
What is the WCAG contrast ratio and why does it matter?
WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) requires a minimum contrast ratio between text and its background. A ratio of 4.5:1 is required for Level AA (standard) and 7:1 for Level AAA (enhanced). High contrast ensures that users with visual impairments can read your content effectively.
How does the Eyedropper tool work?
We use the modern browser EyeDropper API (supported in Chromium-based browsers like Chrome and Edge) to allow you to select any color directly from your entire screen—not just within the browser window.
Can I generate full color palettes from a single seed?
Yes. Our engine automatically calculates monochromatic shades, tints, and complementary colors based on your seed color, providing a cohesive design tokens library for your projects.
